With the help and assistant of some friendly Indians, new foods and fruits found their way to the festive hoaid. The successful fruit.s of their labors were a tribute to their productivity and they, In turn, shared what they had pro duced with their Indian neighbors. It is H.ls same driving force which lias motivated this country in the years since the first Thanksgiving. It has enabled us to Itccome the most prosperous and the most gen erous nation In the world. Through increased productivity we can continue to prosjicr and to share our bountiful harvest with those less fortunate. It Docs Moke Sense and Cents HMi'C is doing something that other Community Colleges have tried and liked. Two courses tire being conducted this -ar on the BMCC campus in Machine Shop and Electricity clictionus for .students of Pendleton and Pilot Rock. For a number of years educational groups have urged the College to do Just this. Pilot Rock has one student in the Mailune Shop course and two in the Electricity-electronics. They attend classes Monday, Wednesday and Friday after noons. So far their superintendent and school board are very well pleased. The boys are pleased and are getting high school credit. If they attend BMCC after graduation and con tinue on in the program, they will receive college credit for the courses they took while in high school. It just makes sense for a boy who may be bored with Senior English and in danger of dropping out of school but who loves his car to be able to take auto mechanics. Vocational type machinery is most expensive and school districts can't afford to equip such departments. With the BMCC district with its distance's, another idea kiiked around for several years is now being contemplated. That of taking career education courses to high schools of Umatilla and Morrow Counties. This probably in the form of specially outfitted busses has great potential to provide Individualized instruction. We need more servicemen.

One was to place it along side a table and view it from the table side to determine which slant would show the piece off to the best advantage .Placing it In water was another way to determine the mst advantapi'ous place to cut.
